Can someone please let me know what BNET is? Its quoted as "the UNIX standard networking software package" by several companies. Is it? Where did it come from? Any such info gratefully received.

The original asked what BNET is. Bnet is UniSoft's implementation of TCP/IP, the `standard' UNIX networking stuff, for their System V 68000 (and maybe other) ports. Many of the UniSoft OEMs currently offering it have the version derived from 4.1BSD; I'm not sure what state the `current' offering that OEMs get from UniSoft is in (i.e., is it 4.2 yet? I don't know).
